What does the songbird and the dream of it represent to
Siddhartha and Kamala?
Throughout the book , the songbird could have many meanings or representations. One popular explanation is that the songbird represents Siddharthas inner voice, or his soul. it is bound to the worldly aspects of his life, thus the bird is kept in a cage. as Siddhartha decides to leave the city, where he didn't find his enlightenment but instead fell for physical love and gambling, Kamala, his lover, frees the bird, which is a symbol for the re-found freedom of Siddhartha.
